Bride of Retribution: Aloof Billionaire's Dominant Game-Chapter 670 - 361 What kind of person is she?_2

"I don’t want it. I just want my original job." She lowered her head and spoke softly.

Her long black hair scattered, floating on the water like the finest, softest seaweed, rippling across the surface.

"Suit yourself, just remember, when I need you, you have to show up." Joshua Hughes’s tone was indifferent, making it hard to discern if he was angry or felt something else.

Avery Jane gritted her teeth secretly and finally couldn’t help but ask, "There’s always a time limit, right? How long before you let me go?"

At the very least, give her a glimmer of hope. The day he returns her freedom is the day her new life begins. No matter how long it takes, she’s willing to wait.

"Do you really want to leave me?" Her urgent desire made him inexplicably uncomfortable.

His words were filled with a chilling coldness, and even the warm pool water couldn’t counter the iciness in his eyes.

She bowed her head, silent and no longer speaking. She didn’t know how to respond, but it seemed no matter how she answered, it would upset him, so she chose not to speak.

The garden was as beautiful as a painting, with neatly pruned trees, an exquisite hot spring pool, a handsome man, and a petite woman, forming the most beautiful scene.

————————————————Dividing Line——————————————

A day later, Avery Jane went to the company.

She had spent an entire day sleeping in bed, and fortunately, Joshua Hughes hadn’t appeared again.

Today she had an audition for a lipstick advertisement.

Actually, whether or not she took the advertisement no longer mattered.

Wenyard Cooper’s assistant told her that Mr. Hughes was a good man. He was committed to charity and had agreed to give them the rights to use the building and sponsor all expenses until the new drug trial succeeded.

The young man’s voice was filled with excitement and joy: "Madam, you should come celebrate with us. The teacher’s wish can finally be fulfilled."

When Avery Jane heard that sentence, her eyes inexplicably welled up with tears.

How could she have the face to enter Wenyard’s lab again? She was no longer the pure Avery Jane. She had exchanged herself with the devil.

As she was staring blankly, the phone rang.

Avery Jane glanced at the phone, feeling a faint bitterness in her heart. It was a call from the Yates family.

But she dared to bet that the call wasn’t out of concern for her; it probably aimed to embarrass her.

She answered the phone, not expecting it to be Arthur Yates calling.

"Avery Jane, I’ve already arranged for someone to pack up your things and send them to your company. However, being with Mr. Hughes, you probably won’t have much use for these old things." Arthur Yates’s voice was somewhat somber on the phone, and there was a hint of something intriguing.

:"Dad, don’t misunderstand, I..."

Avery Jane found herself at a loss for words.

Misunderstanding?

It wasn’t really a misunderstanding, was it? She did go with Joshua Hughes, didn’t she?

"Since you still call me Dad, I’ll just say a few words out of seniority. From the moment Avery Jane met Wenyard, he never had eyes for another woman. I’ve loved Wenyard, so when he wanted to marry you, I let him. But he doesn’t have the good fortune to live with you. Avery Jane, our Yates family didn’t mistreat you, so now it’s time you repay the Yates family. Evelyn is young, prideful, and spoiled by her mother. If she’s been discourteous in any way, I’ll have her apologize to you. You are her elder sister-in-law, so naturally, you wouldn’t hold it against her. Since you’re with Joshua Hughes, when you have the chance, you should mention his marriage with Evelyn. Also, if you end up having a child, I need you to promise me that the child must be raised by Evelyn, understand?"

Those words sounded like a mix of grace and power, but they always made Avery Jane feel sick enough to want to vomit.

She took a deep breath: "I won’t have a child with him, rest assured."

After finishing, she hung up the phone.

Avery Jane thought that if he really loved Wenyard, why would he want to legitimize Harper Johnson? How could he expect her to follow Joshua Hughes to help Evelyn? The life this family lived really seemed like a joke.

Child?

Fortunately, yesterday was a safe day, but this was a matter she had to consider.

Wenyard studied medicine, so naturally, she knew a bit too. Contraceptive pills, whether taken before or after, couldn’t be taken often, as they would ruin a woman’s hormonal health. Then should she let him take precautions?

Such an arrogant and domineering man didn’t seem likely to do that, so she had to avoid him during those dangerous days.
